HISTORY

The proudest franchise in the sport of indoor soccer, the San Diego Sockers returned to action in 2009 with the PASL after a five-year hiatus thanks to the leadership and inspiration of local businessmen David Pike, Carl Savoia, and Phil Salvagio. It was one thing to bring back the Sockers name, but these men knew the real work would be in restoring the Sockers’ dynastic domination of the sport. Salvagio, a former Sockers goalie, and the team’s Head Coach, carefully crafted a combination of rising young talent and the veteran leadership to guide and train the team.

The San Diego Sockers are the most successful indoor soccer team in the sport’s history. The team has won a total of 14 indoor championships in the MISL, PASL and MASL leagues combined. Also, the Sockers also set a U.S. pro sports record with the longest winning streak boasting 48 straight wins.
